While you were dating your spouse did you ever break up for a significant amount of time and then get back together? What were the circumstances of why you broke up and how did you resolve them? Are you happily married now?

We dated for three months while my now husband was in college. We broke up for a while because he was on break and we never saw each other. We lived 3 hours away from each other and with our work schedules we never saw each other.
That was in feb of 2003 that we broke up. July of 2003 we saw each other again and hung out. He still lived in the same area, but had graduated from college and had his own place. I had since moved in with my father and step mother to help them pack up their house for a big move and was looking for a place closer to where my husband lived. I told him i was looking for a new job and a place to live with my son. He invited me to stay in his apartment while looking. He at the time had a job where he was gone all week and only home for sat and sunday. By august we had gotten back together, august 15th to be exact :0) Christmas of 2004 he asked me to marry him and we got married June 17th 2006. We have not been happily married for just over a year and are expecting our planned baby girl the end of sept.
We are very happy. The time we had apart i really needed because i was fairly newly divorced when we met in oct 02 so was not ready for anything serious yet. My ex left in august of 01, divorced officially april 1st 02. (yeah great april fools joke LOL only reason why i remember the day).
We have arguments, but what happy couple does not? I mean if you keep everything in one day you will explode and end up splitting up. So deal with issues when they arise and get them over with and worked through. It makes you closer and stronger. At least it has for us.
Hope this helps.

We broke up for 21 years because he wanted to live in LA and be a famous Salsa star. This was 1976. I was in college in San Francisco my home town.
We each married, lived unhappy for most of those marriages. His wife died of cancer while they were separated. I was divorced in 1989.
We caught up with each other in 1997 got married in 1998 and have been together ever since.

Never broke up while we were dating, but a year after we married we seperated and divorced. He cheated. A couple of months later he was very remorseful; I forgave him and we got back together and one month after that we remarried and have remained married for 14 wonderful years. It takes communication and trust to remain in a happy marriage.

We never broke up. In fact we only dated 8 months before we got married. That was 11 years ago and we're going strong.

My husband moved out for 2 1/2 years, and at the time i thought for reasons as he put it so our marriage wouldn't get any worse then it was. It's funny but my marriage to him was fine. He just came to me one day and said he had been thinking about moving out for sometime now.Needless to say i was devastated at the time.Then after about 6 months into the separation he started to come around more and so this lead to us going out on dates and him spending nights with me and me spending nights at his apartment. After 2 1/2 years he moved back home and that was when i fount out the real reason to his leaving me and his only son.A woman he had been seeing was a co-worker of his and she had been in my home for parties and such. This woman, and i use the word woman loosely.She planted some things in his clothes that she knew i would find.She couldn't understand why a husband would come back to a wife he said he never did love not even when we were first married.This is what my husband was feeding her and she believed it, in her mind i was the reason she lost her boyfriend my husband somehow i forced him into coming home to me,this is what she thought. Anyway we did get through it,i wasn't going to let her get her hands on him again which was her plan.It's been very very hard for me but i held strong and got through it. It's been 10 years now and my husband has made up for it 10 times over .I won't say i trust him that's how it starts by giving your spouse to much trust and they take advantage of it. He has cooked his own goose as they say and he knows this and he also knows i don't trust him. He give that right up when he put his dick into another female and a skanky one at that .It is true you can be happy and stay together even after everything but that doesn't mean i have to trust him in order for our marriage to work.Who every said that is so wrong.Until he earns my trust back this is the way it will stay for us. We love one another and that's how we are getting through this.

Yes, when she found out she was pregnant we broke it off for six months after she told me she had an abortion which I was against (I was 21, she 18)...We got back together when she told me she really didn't have an abortion and got married. We have been married seven years yesterday, but are going through a divorce...

Yes, me and my hubby while dating broke up for a few weeks due to me not sure if he really wanted to settle down, i told him it seemed like he still flirted with other woman and i just didn't know if he was ready to be with just one woman, so after awhile we came back and talked and he said he hated living without me and was sure he wanted to be with me forever, so talking is the big key to resolving anything and yes, we are now happiley married and have been for seven years....

We separated about 12 years after we married.
But we got back together after 3 years apart.
We've now been married 48 years all told.
We were immature about dealing with money.
Now we keep separate bank accounts.
We each take care of certain bills.
